Well another spring is here and havent moved it forward much....
i have a bit of a dilemma i purchased some reproduction F3 valves from charles some years ago which i havent fitted yet.
the question is do i go through the effort of making the changes to use them for a bike which is going to be used for Sunday ride outs and the like or do i sell them to someone who can make use of them......

This says change both cylinders to the kit parts (yeah dream on) change both ends (resonator side) of exhaust valve to the kit parts, moreover use the centre valve as a spare one because it is the same one as a standard automobile. Pay attention to the fitting of right and left valve.
So, according to this you use 2 standard and 2 kit valves - would be good if we had a kit cylinder - but I don't think that's going to happen.
I don't really speak jap but I know a man who does

Re: SHimmer45's KR1-S
ok some progress made
better rad and guard fitted and all the pipework fitted.
need a new clutch cable
a temp sender as the one in the engine has the tang broken off.
btw does anyone know how firm to open the throttle it snaps back nice and quickly but feels a bit heavy opening? might be that i have been riding the 250RS for too long as that has open and return cables for the throttle?

Re: SHimmer45's KR1-S
my guess is take the throttle cable off and wash it down inside with wd40 and then use 3 in 1 oil to lube it up. ]as long as the cables have no fraying on them, it should snap shut.]as the throttle bodies have springs on them. [also route the cable correctly]
but as you say, the kr1s does,nt have open and shut cables' .

Re: SHimmer45's KR1-S
squirted WD down the cable and it feels better but still feels it needs a reasonable pull to open the carb slides, they do slam shut nicely however
